Huk scouted the last 4 Gate with is probe, he needed to warp in a sentry instead of a stalker to block his ramp in order to gain time. He didn't do that. That was a mistake. The game before elfi faked him out and huk misread what was happening, despite only having two gates at that time he managed to get 3 units in Huks base and even kill probes. That was a mistake. elfi maybe isn't on the same level mechanicaly but his gameplan and general build execution was far superior to Huk in almost every game. IMO, HuK just has MC syndrome. He needs to stop traveling so often, stay in Korea and practice! MC was doing amazing for months until he started to go to every single foreign tournament held, and now he's fallen into obscurity with the rest of the mid-level players due to lack of practice and over-exerting himself. | ||

Surprise there. Guess the Warcraft III background helps in a macth-up like PvP. Credit to Elfi though, well played. | ||

Hopefully we'll eventually reach the point when that NEVER happens I like the strategy aspect of Starcraft. Games are more fun when it isn't a battle who can click the fastest. | ||

HuK > Elfi on every level. Elfi beat a REALLY SHIT HuK, if you dont see HuK playing REALLY bad then you don't know what HuK is capable of. Elfi did a straight up build multiple times and HuK played like he was still asleep. If you follow him on twitter and shit, you will see that he said HE IS SO TIRED. He played like he was Tired, im pretty sure that if you think Elfi and his 60-20 something win rate in PvP is better than HuKs ownage of Naniwa/MC/Killer and others in Korea in PvP is still worst than Elfi the "king of PvP" then your all dillusional. Elfi won, well done he beat a really tired/jet lagged HuK in his home country. Elfi 60% win rate on EU ladder @ PvP vs HuK PvP legend on KR and in BIG level tournaments....Elfi is way better yo | ||

Looking at his TLPD there arent many wins against top tier zergs, yeah he consistently beats machine, haypro and sheth(Neither of these I count as top ZvZ foreigners). Trades pretty evenly with Ret and loses to Sen and Nerchio, does this make his ZvZ insane or just good? | ||

I don't think that anyone who currently passes a breathalyzer will argue that Elfi is a better player then HuK is. However HuK did just lose to himself in that series: not getting a sentry when you have scouted a 4gate is just pure fail. | ||

HuK skipped the sentry, that's about it. So attack with a bunch of units on ramp with no sentry = outmicring and outmultistasking lol. | ||

Let's compare this to something else. Idra's run at IEM Guangzhou. You could've watched Jinro beat Idra in the group stages, and then see Idra beat Puma in a bo5 in the semi-finals. What went different in those games? Puma played well and didn't cheese Idra just to make money. We've been cheated of great games by Elfi. Shame on him for knocking out DreamHuk, Homestory Huk, and MLG Huklando with 4gate. It's not very sportsman like and my enjoyment of high level games with a Protoss has been dashed. I do not like you, Mr. Elfi. Not one bit. | ||

huk doesn't even know who elfi is and didn't practice for him plus he comes from korea like yesterday, it's not suprising at all huk lost! This is not giving excuses, this is stating the facts, i don't mean to diss elfi but this is not a "normal" game beetween them and doesn't mean much or atleast doesn't mean elfi >>>> huk .. | ||
